Pub Quiz

Our usual quiz partners ( Ian and Gill ) are away visiting friends and family in the USA, so Mike and I endeavoured to maintain standards and we joined forces with a rival team "George and her Dragons". After a superb evening we even managed to beat all other rivals and win!
So the picture above is the "George and her Dragons' team, relaxing with plenty to drink, Twiglets and even a bottle of rust remover, disguised as wine.
But I am not sure what happened here...
Maybe I STEPped into the wrong pub...and something bewitched them...

Is it safe to stay in this pub?

Anyway, the next day I took another photo...
I could never drink that many Guinnesses in one go!

P.S. The scarecrow has not returned :(

Kidnapping!!!

Every year, in my village, they have a scarecrow competition. Usually I miss out on this and it passes by without my attention. But this year I had a real shock when I came home one night at about 1am and was greeted with this scarecrow, in my shared driveway.
My neighbours had entered the competition and had displayed their artistic creation in our driveway.
As the days go by, I begin to really enjoy the greeting from the scarecrow. I have friends and relatives who pop by and have worked out which house was mine, by the scarecrow. It puts a smile on peoples' faces. I am sure I am even finding it easier to get out into the main road, as people as slowing down to see the huge creation.



But all is not well...

I return home and find my neighbours posting a sign up and no sign of the scarecrow. The night before the judging someone has stolen, or maybe kidnapped the poor scarecrow.
The scarecrow has gone!!!!!!
Will they get a ransome note?
I will let you know as events unfold...

It's even reached the papers... The Story and picture
